[Tutor] Unittest. Run test case independently

[Oleg Oltar]

Is that possible to run test cases independently (without unittest.main) and
how to do it

E.g. I tried it this way:

import random
import unittest

class TestSequenceFunctions(unittest.TestCase):

def setUp(self):
self.seq = range(10)

def testshuffle(self):
# make sure the shuffled sequence does not lose any elements
random.shuffle(self.seq)
self.seq.sort()
self.assertEqual(self.seq, range(10))


def testchoice(self):
element = random.choice(self.seq)
self.assert_(element in self.seq)

def testsample(self):
self.assertRaises(ValueError, random.sample, self.seq, 20)
for element in random.sample(self.seq, 5):
self.assert_(element in self.seq)

if __name__ == '__main__':
a = TestSequenceFunctions().testchoice().run()

Try this:
  unittest.main(defaulTest='TestSequenceFunctions.testchoice')

You can run a single test from the command line using nose:
